There are plenty of ways to celebrate Mothers Day.  All you need to do is open your e-mail or google Mothers Day for the latest and greatest ideas and inspirations.  So, instead of trying to sell you something, although would love to do that to!  I thought I would share some experiences I’ve had and what Mothers Day means to me.

Even though I’m a mother, I always think of my own Mother on Mothers Day.  While I’d love to have my whole family over my house; I realize that my parents are getting older it’s really tough for them to get around.  So, I’m thinking that we can cook and meet at my Mom’s and do something fun for her.  Next idea: do I just make it about my Mother and her Mothers Day or do I celebrate my sisters as Mother’s too?  Wow, this keeps getting more complicated!  LOL! 

I have a vision of us all at Mom’s together, preparing her gardens and planting some new perennials or annuals on her behalf.  Maybe we can install a bird house or two on the sunny side of the house.  I can have my nieces and nephews help – killing two birds with one stone as they need to do something for their Mothers.  I can get the men to prepare and serve the food and they can do something for their Mother or Mother in Law.  And, we as Mothers can enjoy our Mother and spend the day together!

Sounds like a plan.  Now all I have to do is e-mail and call the 25 odd people in my family to get it going YIKES!
Wish me luck! 
And, while we’re wishing – I wish all the Mothers out there – a wonderful, joy filled Mothers Day!
